Thanks, Bob. We had a blast, I appreciate your help on the other thread with some planning and advice. As an aside we stopped to see Terry at Nortech for a tour on the way home... the more long distance trips we do the more I think I need a bigger boat. The 303 will have to do for a few more years though!

No 930's in the stable right now, just some old school lightweight NA power... and a few other this' and that's. Some boosted, some not so much.

My Track rat... 3.0RS

Tyrbo, nice pics, looks like you had a great time.

The Wife and I are looking to relo down there hopefully before the end of the year and are really looking to the same trip.

I'm done with the midwest winters, we love LOTO in boating season, but not from NOV-MAR.

I wish. It's been a while since I've been up there. Boats and airplanes have taken me away from the car thing a bit. I still spend a lot of time in the shop working on other people's stuff, but mine usually seems to come last.

You will love it! The boating around there was just awesome.

Now you have an idea about what we have to deal with down here.
That ramp is 2.8 miles from my house, so, once I do get a boat, I'm set.



Glad you had a good trip. Thanks to Bob, I've been to Key West a few times by boat and it has always been a great ride.

Looks like a great trip, hope to do it soon, but five people on the boat.

I wish I had known you were that close, I'd have bought you a cold one or two on the boat

It was a means to an end. Work hard, play harder! It always helps to have some friends share in the cost.

We'll see... maybe if you can get my boat there for me, that drive is a bear!

Naples to KW : 72 Gallons
Total trip hydrocarbon fuel consumption: 587 Gallons, or 14,765 miles in your average family car
